I posted this earlier in August, but the project was not yet ready to launch. I am proud to say that after months of developing this project, our first fundraising campaign will launch in mid-September. I ask that everyone take the time to see what the Institute is up to.

Importantly, this is where you, your family, and friends come in. All money raised goes directly to the Institute, and more specifically directly to the research project we are initiating on the Experiment website.

That means every dollar you donate to the project goes directly to glioblastoma research!

The other very cool thing about supporting this work, is donors / backers get updates about the project they are supporting! The Institute has even implemented a discussion panel, so the backers can ask the researchers about the science, about the work, and get feedback from those researchers.

This is a very exciting time for biomedical science, and The Institute is grateful for all of the support.
